Since your overtime hours are based on the hours worked in one day over 8 hours, you will need to calculate the hours worked in a single day and then compute the non-overtime hours for the day and the overtime hours for that day. For a weekly time sheet you will need to calculate the non-overtime hours for the week and the overtime hours for the week. You may also want to  include some way to check that all hours worked are accounted for as non-overtime hours and overtime hours.

You need to start by understanding the math completely. So you could work this out on paper. Only then can you start to write the code. There's nothing built in that knows how to do salary calculations.

Your description is not very clear. What should be the result in the overtime amount field, in the example you provided?

The overtime amount result should be 468.75 or round 469.00
